I bought these springs because my car had too much clearance between the tyre and the body.It looked like it needed a few bags of cement as luggage. Eibach has a proven record of producing springs in race car applications and I felt I could rely on them to provide me with the right springs for my application. Buying the Eibach Pro -kit springs with insulator kit for my 1997 V8 Gt convertible was the right choice.My car not only looks better with its more sportier stance but it also handles and rides better.Being a convertible I was worried that lowering the car would increase the more noticeable body flexing bumpity ride that convertibles have as opposed to hardtops.But to my surprise the ride has improved overall and I am more than satisfied.
